The project is intensive enough that I wouldn't attempt it in VB and Access, but it is ideally suited for VFP. The problem here, is that I don't know enough about FileMaker Pro to make meaningful counter points.
If
you are going to do the development, then the very fact that you "don't know enough about FileMaker Pro"
is, by itself, a "meaningful counterpoint". You know Visual FoxPro already, but you would have to learn FileMaker Pro. Who is going to pay you for learning FileMaker Pro?
